You absolutely do have to sort yourself out above all else though, because at the end of the day, you're all you've got, and being too nice and giving in life can very often shaft you up the rear end. So I don't think there's anything wrong with you being the way you are, Shadowhound. Others may not always like it, but at least you know you're self-reliant and can manage just fine with or without them.

Wow... you've just depressed the living < f-bomb > out of me.
How's life in any way worth living in this way? I mean, I'm a pretty solidly introverted guy myself, but from what do you derive pleasure in this life if not other people? How do you ever maintain a real, lasting relationship with this attitude?
